The 2014 German GP on Sky Sports F1

The features you don't want to miss from Hockenheim this weekend

By Sky Sports Online

The 2014 F1 season – and the all-Mercedes battle for the Drivers’ Championship – has entered a crucial fortnight with back-to-back races in Germany and Hungary taking the sport into the summer break.

Both of those race weekends are live only on Sky Sports F1 and your dedicated channel has plenty of features lined up to ensure the first of those – the German GP at Hockenheim – is one you don’t want to miss this weekend.

As usual, it’s the Drivers’ Press Conference on Thursday at 2pm which kicks our coverage from the grand prix off with Germany’s quartet of drivers, along with Kimi Raikkonen and Kevin Magnussen, scheduled to face the world’s press on all the matters of the moment in the sport.
